Self Introduction

Background

## Hi! My name is Vincent Jin and I am a second year MHS student from the Department of Epidemiology, Infectious Disease track.
## I completed my bachelor's degree from Unviersity of Washington with a major of Public Health in 2019. Before I came to Hopkins, I worked as a social worker who helps senior low-English-literacy Asian immigrants access governmental healthcare programs in Seattle, WA for about 1 and a half year.
## My current research interest lies upon the COVID-19 pandemic. 
## I am currently doing a survival analysis to try explore the association between prior COVID-19 infections before vaccination and breakthrough infections after being fully vaccinated.
## I do not have much experiences with coding and do not know much about R. Before this course, I was mainly using Stata on data analysis. I also do not have very strong statistical background, but I think I'll be able to satisfy the requirements of this course that were described in Lecture 01. By taking this course, I wish to familiarize myself with R so that I'll be having more options when doing data analysis in the future, and also expand my capability of collaboration with colleagues who only use R.
## Thank you so much for this course, Dr. Hicks! I have already learned a lot by doing the Project 0. Looking forward to hear more about R and Statistical Computing!
